Costs Every day I wear the same boring stuff Don’t feel creative Look like everyone else No one sees how great I can look My individuality never gets expressed Benefits Easy to dress in the morning Won’t ruin my cute clothes Will look like everyone else so it reduces competition Less expensive for my parents Won’t be in trouble … Follow the dress code
